| Post subject: | Postmap Error: Access Denied for mailuser |
I'm setting up a mailserver, following Linode's "Email with Postfix" instructions. When I get to the point of of testing whether my email alias is present in mysql-virtual-mailbox-maps.cf, I get this rather contradictory message: Code: postmap: warning: connect to mysql server 127.0.0.1: Access denied for user 'mailuser'@'localhost' (using password: YES) Does this indicate success or failure? The access denied message points to 'mailuser'@'localhost'. Should 'mailuser' be replaced by something else (such as the actual username)? Thanks for any help. |

Any user name should be ok (including "mailuser") as long as the pair user/password created to access the mysql database and the pair user/password you tell postfix and dovecot to use in the config files are the same. |

Hello, Check your password for mailuser again in the the file /etc/postfix/mysql-virtual-alias-maps.cf |
